Scenery problem by the 3rd parallel

[Noah_Simonich]

In northern Canada/Alaska there is a problem with my scenery where the mountains cutoff immediately and I’m pretty sure that’s not supposed to happen.

Strange terrain

It looks strange, yes. But the reason is that you’re looking at the 60th North parallel, where there currently is no topographical data. You can see similar things in Canada, Alaska, Sweden, Russia and so on… There’s no topographical data for south of the 60th parallel south either… but as you can see, there’s nothing but Antarctica down there:

It is supposed to happen, as I described in the post linked above.
